Highly Suspicious and Unfairly Cute by Talia Hibbert

3.5

This was good but not as amazing as I had hoped. The characters were likeable and the plot was fine, I wanted more though. It felt like things were happening so quickly and the scenes were so short. I did enjoy the dialogue and the humor as usual with a Talia Hibbert book.

A cute and fun read, but ultimately forgettable & I didn’t love this one as much as I enjoyed The Brown Sisters trilogy by Talia Hibbert. As someone who also manages OCD, I thought Brad’s portrayal was well done  & I enjoyed Celine’s POV.

Only critique listening to the audiobook. Hard to differentiate what was said out loud vs. in those head

This was a bit like reading fanfic for Vivian and Jackson from Sex Education. I kept waiting for Maeve, Otis, Eric, and Amy to pop through. It is a solid YA grumpy/sunshine, frenemies to HEA, with OCD rep and someone getting started on healing their father wound. A nice gateway to the genre of modern, contemporary romance for the youths.
